The first game of the season had these 2 rivals meeting up. Not only did they have a hate for each other from the previous season, but with the S31 offseason signings of "The Deplorables" and a few other happenings, the hate grew stronger between these 2 teams. Both came out swinging looking to set the pace for the year, however it was the Falcons who came out on top by a 1 goal margin.


The 2nd period didn't take long to get going either, with Jari Sinikka breaking the tie early into the period.

Quote:Vikstrom brings the puck into Montreals end, passes to Sinikka, Sinikka to Metzler back to Sinikka. Sinikka with the one timer, it beats Harris glove side. 3-2 Falcons

<div align="center][SIZE=7]3rd Period</div>
The 3rd didn't see much action, other then a few penalties and the Militia trying desperately to tie it back up. However it wasn't meant to be, as Detroit held them off for the 3-2 win.

<div align="center]3 Stars of the Game</div>
3rd Star - Alexis Metzler - 1G,1A,2P,6S,2H,3SB - Metzler helped out on both ends of the ice tonight. Playing strong offensively as well as not being caught out of position once, he was a big reason Detroit walked away with the win.

2nd Star - Henrik Vikstrom - 0G,2A,2P,1S,1H,0SB - Vikstrom managed to stick it to his old team in this game. Assisting on 2 goals, including the game winner, Vikstrom showed Montreal maybe it wasn't a wise decision to move him to Detroit.

1st Star - Zach Evans - 1G,1A,2P,5S,4H,0SB - Evans was the heart and soul of the team tonight. The sophomore player didn't take a shift off through out the night and earned his team the win.
